Mindful Monday for 3/28 It’s Not What I Can Do, It’s What He’s Already Done

Are you as tired after the Easter celebrating as I am? (It was also my son’s 13th birthday!) After a week of daily Holy Week devotions, I was tempted to take Mindful Monday off for this week, but I want to stay consistent for you and I both 🙂  This … Continue reading
